# Drowned City – New film about Pirate Radio
*Drowned City* is a new film by British director Faith Millin.
Exploring the shady world of UK pirate radio the film is unprecedented
in the access gained the to people behind the stations, who are
naturally wary about sharing details of their broadcasting activities.
As anyone who has tried to tune a radio in the Greater London area can
testify Pirate Radio is indelible part of the UK's music community. With
stations like **Rinse** going legit, and the advent of digital platforms
the future for the Pirates is unclear, so *Drowned City* could not come
at a better time as it documents the people behind the pylons, and gives
these mis-interpreted figures a voice of their own in the wider world.
No release date is scheduled yet for the film, which is apparently still
in post production, but we'll let you know as soon as we have one.
